I thought I had seen the most ridiculous waste of raw material when AOL had the giant plastic DVD movie cases for the junkmail copies of AOL, the ones that are sent to your door. Then they came out with the metal ones, and I thought, "no way, how can they see it necessary to put this stupid shit in metal." I believe most people simply throw them out.
Well, they beat out my wildest dreams of wasted resourse use today, when I received my very first AOL disk in a quarter inch thick wooden box. I can't believe they invented a wooden box for those stupid CDs. We should really do something about this, but I have no idea what. Maybe we should do a mass AOL collection point, where we get them all in one big pile for the guiness book of world records for wasted materials.
Ironically, there was a little ad inside that said how annoying pop-up windows are and that you can stop them with AOL: keyword "popup" I really put these stupid CDs in the same category as POP up windows. Can we just a keyword to delte them from existence?!?

Sarah at the Old HouseHere is a picture of Sarah in front of the old house by the coop. It made me wonder what will happen to thelexington community once the coop pulls out. I mean,will the other little businesses survive, or are their profits based around the coop's member shopping there. The cashier said that the coop will be moving in six months. I guess it will be convenient to have them next store again.
